does "noise" mean the image has areas out of focus? If so, so what . Whinge, whinge, whinge.

I think this is what is meant: If you blow the image up several times, you can see that the shadows are not smooth - there's some random variation from pixel to pixel...
(but as Art says, so what? It's still a terrific pic!)

Maybe bc I'm a photographer myself Ican't help but noticing these things. Noise (=grain of analog film) etc just blows up in my face. Especially since the pics are usually close to top notch in this site I was wondering what went "wrong".

I'm always up for some nitpicking ... .. maybe it helps to keep (or maybe even further improve) the standard of this site up

First of all, J5e1n2, I'll defend to the death your right to criticize whatever you want. It's just interesting that in both cases you noticed it and everyone else is going What???. I guess some people have a keen eye for such things. Probably a nitpicking, critical Virgo. My father's a Virgo. Don't get me started.

Second of all, I dimly remembered a similar discussion about Anthea, so I looked for her thread, and bang, there you were. Usually I can't remember the names of the models from last week. Anthea was special because she chatted on the boards.

Third of all your PS about "any ISO setting >400 should be outlawed" is similar to the complaints we get from people who never want to see a boy/girl set again, or who can't stand facial piercings, or think that peeing belongs in specialty sites. Ya don't like it, ignore it, and look at the other 500 sets that you do like.

I'm sorry, that last paragraph sounds more critical than I want it to be. I still love ya, dude!

P.S. Your user name. You didn't get the name and the password mixed up, did you?

Noise is the grain that appears when you use natural light on a low ISO. On a digital photo, the grain often comes up multi-coloured, so when it is emphasised through increasing the saturation, it can look unusual and distracting, and also it can look like jpeg artifacting.

I have to admit I do notice it a lot of the time it appears, but it's a deliberate artistic choice, and not a sign of a bad lighting setup or poor photography.

I guess they feel safer with me than with some of these eager young studs such as artlover

Heeheehee. At least I am still eager. Actually I am a perfect gentleman... unless I am in the mood.

Back in the Sixties there was a TV commercial for a gadget called a Stud Finder. It was a device that you ran along the wall and (allegedly) beeped when it found a vertical wooden beam. My mom and I loved that one!

I suppose that there will be a DVD coming out for these two girls, and that is probably why I didn't find the videos as exciting as it should have been. Personaly, I find the photo shoot more explicit than the video. Five minutes of kissing without anything else, was a little too much. That is my opinion, and nobody has to agree with me. Otherwise, these girls are very lovely and lovable.

Actually, the Mim and Jacqui set may not end up on video, as it lacked some spark.

Ever the perfectionist, Abby!

OK, so you may think it wasn't the most erotically pyrotechnic/pyromanic set that has graced our screens, but its "story-line" of two lovely young women starting to explore each other had a
lovely warmth to it all the same. The atmosphere reminded me rather of that beautiful video of Verity and Sue that we had last year.FWIW
